President-elect Donald Trump will be sworn in for his second term Monday, promising a new era of mass deportations and an overall immigration crackdown. With mass deportation operations in large urban cities like Chicago and New York City expected to kick off as soon as Tuesday, experts and immigration advocates are now sharing pieces of advice to undocumented immigrants and how they can protect themselves.
On the eve of his inauguration, at a rally in Washington D.C.'s Capital One Arena, Trump said he plans to sign executive orders quickly and launch "the most aggressive, sweeping effort to restore our borders the world has ever seen." "Very soon, we will begin the largest deportation operation in American history," he added, a phrase he constantly repeated in his 2024 re-election bid.
